Hon Chemistry 9-15-22 Lab Safety & Procedures

HON CHEMISTRY: Wow! Great video, but do you feel like you have information overload!?

Here is the lab safety video we watched in class. It does have a ton of info, and the thing is, you absolutely must know it – and not just for the test, but also throughout the year in lab. It’s a really good idea to watch it again and take notes as you go.

HOMEWORK: First though, lets talk about homework.(Don’t forget to check your syllabus to see what else is due tomorrow and Monday!!)

Lab Apparatus Assignment – Identify the equipment in the Lab Apparatus Review Assignment on Canvas. On the Chemistry Canvas page, scroll down to Assignments and you’ll see the assignment. Once you start the assignment, you will have 15 minutes to complete it. It’s due on Friday by 10:00 A.M.. If I counted right, there are 33 of them. IMPORTANT: There’s a practice that you can use before you do the actual assignment.

Lab Safety ContractSince we’ll be in lab so much, it’s important that you write your own lab safety contract. Here’s how you do it::

  • From the first couple of pages of the Safety Packet that you got in class (or it’s also here under the Lab tab), hand write the lab safety statements as your contract.
  • They must be handwritten on notebook paper. You only have to write the first part of the rule that is bold. There are 29 in all and they almost all start with “I will…”.
  • At the end of your contract – after the last statement, hand write the following statement at the bottom: “I agree to abide by these rules.” Then sign underneath and date it.
  • Scan your final signed document as a PDF and submit it into your Chemistry Shared Folder. The assignment name is Lab Safety Contract.
  • IMPORTANT: You must have this safety contract submitted to be able to participate in lab for the rest of the year! Due Monday!

  1. Something new that scientist have discovered is shining a laser at parts of plastic, such as plastic from water bottles, could result in diamonds. This experiment was made off of new developments in quantum physics, and could give us an idea of what could be occurring on other planets such as Neptune.

  2. In the year 1920, British physicist Rutherford realized that the neutral particles in the nucleus of an atom (neutrons) could explain the existence of isotopes. Instead of identifying the neutrons themselves as a discovery, he proposed the theory that protons were combined with electrons creating the neutrons. Therefore, he was correct about the neutrons role, but not its identity.
